Its a bad idea to store data on the desktop because if windows bites the dust, worst case the data gets corrupt, best case you can pop the drive in another machine and copy the desktop folder out before wiping the drive.
But I do it anyway, invariably I have projects im working on sitting on the desktop, documents folder, etc.
I know with win7/vista its super easy to move the user folders to another drive.
My question is, is there ANY downside to doing this???
